You do not deserve to be locked up by any means. You have as much right as anyone else to be part of society and to be free. I'm sorry that your life has been so full of pain. Depression takes longer to get better than physical pain does, and I hope that it will get better too. Relief from the physical pain is likely to help that.

Please hang on. You have so much talent, and I would hate for you to withdraw from us.
